We have very few sightings from Geelong, so anything you report is of value.

I like that you're evidence based. I checked the tree and the berries have been largely stripped, so they may not be back immediately.

There is a fig tree that they feed from later in the year, I should get some good pics then.

Are there particular sightings you're more interested in? We get:

frequent: wattle bird (anthochaera carunculata?), crow (corvus coronoides?), magpie, pied currawong

seasonal: silvereye, sulphur-crested cockatoo, new holland honeyeater,

occasional: black cockatoo (don't recall tail colour) - saw flocks thrice in the last year

rarely: hawk/falcon (haven't seen for a few years)

introduced: pigeon, common myna, blackbird

Also, seasonal flying foxes

This all is probably fairly ordinary
